[P1] dependabot-go-checker compilation failure breaks Agentic Maintenance #28061

@github-actions

Description

@github-actions

Workflow: dependabot-go-checker.md
Impact: Agentic Maintenance workflow fails at compile-workflows step — 199/200 compiled, 1 error
First seen: 2026-04-23T11:00Z run §24831492077

Error

✗ dependabot-go-checker.md
dependabot-go-checker.md:1:1: error: invalid workflow: GitHub Actions schema validation failed
- at '/jobs/agent/permissions': 'oneOf' failed, none matched
  - at '/jobs/agent/permissions': additional properties 'vulnerability-alerts' not allowed

Root Cause

dependabot-go-checker.md declares vulnerability-alerts: read in its permissions: block. The GitHub Actions JSON schema does not allow vulnerability-alerts as a permissions key in a job's permissions block — it appears the gh-aw compiler previously accepted this but now the schema validation is rejecting it.

Fix Options

  1. Remove vulnerability-alerts: read from frontmatter — if the workflow doesn't actually need this permission at the job level, remove it. The permission may be a leftover from a toolset requirement.
  2. Move to workflow-level permissions — if needed, vulnerability-alerts may need to be specified at the workflow top-level rather than the job level.
  3. Update compiler schema — if vulnerability-alerts is a valid GitHub Actions job-level permission, update the JSON schema used by the compiler.

Frontmatter (current)

permissions:
  contents: read
  actions: read
  issues: read
  pull-requests: read
  security-events: read
  vulnerability-alerts: read  # <-- this line causes schema validation failure

Impact

Agentic Maintenance fails on every run until this is resolved. The workflow cannot compile and thus cannot recompile other stale workflows or check for compile errors across the ecosystem.
